Redwood Fences & Gates

I’m sorry to report that after two consecutive thefts of my van and all of my tools I have decided to close my fence and gate business and resume my tech career.

You can read all about what happened, but it is a painful story.

Thank you to all of my clients who have supported me through the years. I met so many wonderful people. It was one of the best parts of running my own business.

Different Fence Styles and Options

Good neighbor – looks the same on both sides

Welded wire on steel posts, with or without a privacy screen
Hog wire or Cattle fence with redwood frames
Hiller-Highland style fences with battens and toppers
Craftsman style fences where fasteners are mostly hidden
Premade lattice installation and custom sized lattices

Pricing

Beginning in 2023 I have a Price List you can use for common projects. I will always visit you to discuss your project. I can point out any special aspects of your project and raise different options for your consideration. I always make you a formal, written offer even for work with prices. Those offers are good for six months.

For other projects I make estimates (not bids). I try to make them clear and comprehensive, but they are still just estimates made before some of the details of the work are even knowable.

The sections of this Picket Fence are removable to allow for gardening next to the house

This is Least Cost fence with overlapping fence boards for improved privacy.
The fence is built on the steel posts that used to support a cyclone fence on this wall.

This is a Hiller Highland-style fence with a gate

There was a sewer pipe where I wanted to put a post, so I put a post 2′ away and connected it to the fence like a flying buttress. Then the fence took a detour around a tree. This is what my client needed and I was happy to provide it.

A cladded cyclone fence added a lot of privacy to my client’s back yard.
The gate still allows access to the yard.

This was a section of a very long Good Neighbor fence.

Here is a video that shows a good neighbor gate in the above fence:
